Detected condition

What may contribute
Possible causes
- A possible oven door latch assembly or door-switch condition.
- A possible associated-wiring condition.
Start conservatively
Safe preliminary checks
Work in order and stop whenever a step is not supported by the documentation for your model.
Record the code and let the oven cool
- Photograph F5 E0 and confirm the full model number.
- If the oven was hot or self-clean was used recently, let the appliance cool completely before checking normal door movement.
Look only for an obvious external obstruction
- With the oven cool and not running, look for an item or debris visibly preventing the door from closing normally.
- Do not force, pry, strike, or manually manipulate the latch mechanism.
Use one documented power reset if the door is otherwise normal
- If there are no electrical, overheating, gas, or damage warning signs, turn the supplying breaker off for one minute and restore power.
- If F5 E0 returns or the door does not operate normally, request qualified service.
Actions not recommended
- Do not force or pry the oven door, defeat the door switch, or manually move the latch mechanism.
- Do not remove panels or access the latch, switch, wiring, control, or gas components.
- Do not run self-clean or repeated heating cycles as a way to clear F5 E0.
When to stop and request service
- F5 E0 returns after the single documented reset.
- The door remains locked, will not close normally, or appears damaged or misaligned.
- Stop using the appliance and seek qualified help for smoke, sparking, a burning smell, uncontrolled heating, repeated breaker trips, visible electrical damage, or abnormal heat. If you smell gas, leave the area and follow local gas-emergency guidance rather than operating switches.
